I love design.

I'm one of the lucky ones. I really love what I do. I have a true, deep love for design and typography. I have 5 years of professional experience and a bachelor's degree in Graphic Design from the College of Design at NC State University. I currently work as a Graphic Artist for the NC Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services, and I enjoy freelance projects as another way to scratch my creative itch. I'm always searching for fun new projects, so please feel free to contact me if you have a project that needs some creative attention.

A few of my goals...
Have enthusiasm to learn.
Clearly outline the project objectives. Each project is different.
Put function over form.
Have good organizational skills.
Be flexible.
Leave room to explore.
Communicate clearly.
Work efficiently with time & money.
Listen. Welcome critique. I don't know it all.
Be proud of my work, my effort and my ethics.
Be nice.

When I'm not working my day job or on freelance projects, I enjoy reading, painting, photography, jigsaw puzzles and card games. Art and design, Motown music and loved ones make me happy. I live in Raleigh, NC with my future husband, Chris, and our extraordinary dog, Tucker.
